it was 140 workers in the start!

kingsarthak123: can you give me the whole answer
TheLostMonk: ask it!
TheLostMonk: of course! it's simple !
TheLostMonk: if 20 men can do a work of 10 days.then obviously to complete this work in 80 days it will require=8×20=160 men.but here he asking about the numbers of men who were in the start ,then it would be =7×20=140,
TheLostMonk: means,if 10 days work can done by 20 men(who left). then 70 days work can done by =70/10×20=140
TheLostMonk: 7:1×20=140
